Samenvatting

The architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) is witnessing fundamental changes within its civil engineering and heavy construction sectors as to how projects are designed, assessed, and constructed. The goal of this change is to reduce a project's overall costs that arises from change orders and rework (15 to 20 percent of the total), and to analyze sustainable design approaches. The opportunity of reducing these costs and bringing change orders to near zero are driving the AEC industry and its stakeholders in the direction of integration. This integration is based on economics; more complexity in designs (e.g. sustainability analysis); productivity; and the nature of current owners design requirements to deliver more sustainable infrastructure more rapidly and more affordably. In this session using project case study examples, the speaker will discuss how model-based design tools, together with building information modeling (BIM) and Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) processes supported by alternative project delivery methods such as Project Alliancing and Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) are helping to reduce risk and liability in infrastructure projects and aiding in sustainable design and analysis approaches to tomorrow's infrastructure.
